Why it’s important:
Knowing and confidently saying their full name helps children identify themselves to teachers and school staff. It is also important for safety, attendance, and building independence.

How to do it:
Practice saying your child’s full name during everyday moments. Turn it into a fun game by asking, “What’s your full name?” or pretending to check in for school.

What to look for:

• Says full name clearly
• Responds when name is called
• Shows confidence when sharing
